Opportunity for Young Lawyers to hear from Justice Thomas and participate in Federal Judicial Round table discussions

The Bench Bar Committee of the Middle District of Florida has approved funding to underwrite the cost for 45 young lawyers (under 36 yrs old or 5 yrs of practice or less) who are members of the bar of the Middle District of Florida to attend the special Saturday morning program for young lawyers at this year’s Eleventh Circuit Judicial Conference, being held at the Marriott Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach on May 5, 2018. Participants in the Saturday program will meet with dozens of federal judges and attend a discussion with United States Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas (attendees will also get breakfast and CLE credit). The cost is normally $110, but will be free for up to 45 young lawyers who register using the form below and the Bench Bar Committee’s special RSVP email address(11thCirConf_YoungLawyers_RSVP@flmd.uscourts.gov). This information is also available on the Court’s website (www.flmd.uscourts.gov). Applicants will be accepted on a “first come first accepted” basis. Also, because the deadline to register is April 13, prompt action is encouraged.
